Perhaps after a certain game limit, [for instance 20], who won the most out of that 20 would advance?

Another option more or less in line with 3 in a row is: 3 of last 3; 4 of last 5; 5 of last 7; 6 of last 9; 7 of last 11; 8 of last 13; etc. So 3+1+1+1.... to win out of 3+2+2+2.... Theoretically it could still go on forever, but that is not very likely

I have 2 fully created tournaments that I would like to be seen ran in CC but I don't have time nor wish to do it myself right now so whoever wants can pick them up. I've also created excel sheets for them so just message me and I'll send them over if you wish. Also, if you wish to change something then go ahead. They are both quite simple tournaments, need updating once or twice a week, maximum 30 minutes a week.

***Everybody who are ready to give constantly 3 spots to this tournament are welcome***

Jungle has reached CC! Unless it has always been here but hidden, waiting its time to come out. Anyway, now it's here, Lions are sleeping and Hippo along with Dog are inviting everybody to become the next Leader of Jungle. Are you clever enough? Do you have enough stamina to hold on weeks, even months? Are you strong enough to fight yourself from battle to battle until all opponents have dropped out and there's only you standing? Come! PROVE IT!

Setup of this tournament will be very similar to Snowy Rock Races but with some improvements to make it stronger and more reasonable. Make sure that you read through everything and use the form to sign up.

Setup

Overall I'm looking for 18 players.Approximately once per week (depends how fast you'll be playing) a bunch of games will made. Not a random number of games but a formula will be used (number of players * 3 / 2). That way everybody will play 3 games (on some weeks some players play a game or two less) and win/lose points according to the scoring below. If your score reaches zero (or goes below it) then you are not worthy to be next Leader of Jungle and drop out of the tournament.

Winning the tournament

There are 2 winning conditions:1. Reach 90 points (that would mean that you've collected 50% of all the available points)2. If point 1 won't happen before there's 4 players left in the tournament then a double elimination bracket will be played between those 4 to decide the winner.

Everybody starts with 10 points.Points disappear or move from one player to another.Losing a game (week 1-10): 3 points from loser to winnerLosing a game (week 11-20): 5 points from loser to winnerLosing a game (week 21-30): 7 points from loser to winneretcNot joining after 1st message: -1 pointNot joining after a reminder: -2 pointsNot joining after 2nd reminder: -3 pointsJoining more than 3 games: -2 points per opponent (wins don't count, each opponent receives 2 points)

Map Pool

For each battle, a map from this list will be used.

If for some reason we run out of maps then I will add more crazy maps to the pool.

Thanks for the reply.Because people could search the game numbers from the auto join link and therefore find a way of viewing who had joined a certain game, I decided what I wanted to attain here was not achievable.I will however play my part one day and get a tournament organised.Perhaps for the occasion of my 3000th game - or my 1000th win.CheersWrex

Wrexham, something you could do instead would be to randomly select opponents (names in a hat, dice rolls, whatever). Not quite the same thing, but sort of in a general sense.

4 divisions, 2 conferences6 team divisionsthis is supposed to be just like a sports league

play a schedule of 50-80 games with an emphasis on your own division with very games against the opposite conference.

the winners of the each division get a 1st round bye

the next 4 teams in the conference are seeded accordinng to w/l and then play roundnext round its reseeded as the division winners as the top seeds. the one with the best record is of course the top seed at this point.

each playoff round is best of 7

initially i wanted it be world 2.1 unlimited, fog, escalating but not everyone will be interested in that so each team can select their home field. the regular season will be based on home/away games and there will be home field advantage in the playoffs.

it will be an ongoing thing where we keep a record.

I like the idea of having a league and playing games with a goal in sight. i want it be just like a sports league with its own history, rivalries,etici could assist you.send me a private message if interested

Once a team joins the league they are in for life until they decide to drop outThis will be an ongoing league with infinite seasons. We’ll keep track of the wins/losses and playoff results in order to establish a history.

The allocation of teams to divisions will be based on the total number of pts between the two players for each team. The teams will be ranked from 1-24 based on pts. Team 1 will go to the Patrick division, team 2 to the adams division, team 3 to the Norris, team 4 to the symthe division, team 5 to the symthe and so on. See the above chart for further clarification.

Lets play some Tic-Tac-Toe !!!You can set it up as a 1v1 tourney or do teams. For example:

Team [X]-joe-bob-briggs

Team [O]-billy-james-keebler

Here's how it will work. A coin toss decides who goes first.If it's your turn, your team picks a square and the setting for the game.If you win you get the square. If you lose, the other team gets the square.

As a tournament idea: How about Tournament of the Forgotten Lands, a simple 32/64 person knockout, playing on all those traditional style maps that you never seem to see on the game finder anymore, E.G. North America, Arctic, Cairns Coral Coast.

A breathe of new life into some older tried and tested maps, i'd organise it myself, but i am going on holiday on the 30th, though maybe when i get back, but until then, the idea is going free for anyone who wants to adopt it?

Remember next time you're buying rat poison, spare a thought for a cheerleader...Buy an extra bottle!

I'd like to see a big escalating tourney only for players of 2000 or more points. I sometimes get frustrated trying to find escalating games without a noob that wants to suicide for a bonus, etc. 64 players in 8-man groups, a series of 12 or 16 games on standard maps, with the player with the most wins advancing from each group. Something like that. Or the top 2 players from each group into Final Sixteen.

If I'm allowed to do this, I'll do it.

Obviously with some different variations, but if I'm allowed to put in a 2,000 point rule, then I'll run that tournament.
